Experience

TTA founders Vic and Maria Melfa have been recruiting, vetting, and placing contract L&D talent since the 1980s where they led their former company, Vitronix, to become the first and largest training center in the country for Microsoft, Novell, IBM, Oracle, and SUN UNIX training. TTA execs and seasoned management staff come from a wide range of backgrounds, including the learning, staffing, and recruiting industries. Under the governance of these leaders, TTA has grown to become the largest supplier of L&D talent and training-related solutions in the world.

Cost-Saving Solutions

Business Process Outsourcing is no longer considered a trend or strategy only to be utilized in a down economy. Training BPO is a key strategy employed by most leading companies to drastically reduce training-related costs while still achieving corporate objectives.

Family-Owned and Operated Since 1994

The Training Associates was established by father-daughter team Vic and Maria Melfa to serve the vast market need for a professional consulting organization specializing in providing high quality, on-demand L&D talent and training delivery solutions to clients and partners. They, along with their seasoned management team, are in the trenches, dealing with the day-to-day operation of the business, defining the company’s culture, developing new or innovative services to provide clients – and ensuring that clients are completely satisfied with the services provided.
